2020 Holiday Blanket Distribution, 1 month late but done...

Thank you individuals, groups and organizations

Traditionally we distribute collected blankets on Christmas Eve and Christmas Morning. Due to a personal Covid 19 crisis distribution was postponed until 1/25/2021. Sorry for the delay. Happy New Year. Stay safe, stay well.

FreeConferenceCalls.Com, Thank you...

For the second year in a row FreeConferenceCalls.Com out of Long Beach collected two pallets of blankets for distribution to our neighbors who call the city's sidewalks home. What wonderful holiday gifts to those in need. Thank you FreeConferenceCalls.Com for your compassionate giving during this holiday season. Your generosity is testament to sharing, caring and being there for those in need.

SPN Networks, thank you for the hundreds of blankets and gift bags with life essentials for the city's less fortunate.

The people of SPN Networks out of Santa February Springs collected and assembled hundreds of Holiday gift bags for our neighbors who call the sidewalks of Skidrow home. The bags included socks, toothbrush, toothpaste and a greeting card with a inspirational message. Also included were hundreds of blankets to provide warmth and cover from the elements.

Helping others that help others...

The amazing people of SPN Networks wanted to do something special this holiday season for those less fortunate. See how they hand made hundreds of blankets and care packages that included socks, toothbrushes, toothpaste and a personalized card with a inspirational message for the recipient. Then they contacted us to distribute the gifts they made directly to our neighbors who call the sidewalks of skidrow home. This is what "WE" do, help others help others. Contact us if you need help.

Always a NEED. "Run Outs" is a reality...

We collect bottled water, blankets, snack food, etc. to distribute to our homeless neighbors. Sadly no matter how much we collect the NEED always exceeds the supply. Contact us if you have something you wish to have directly distributed to our neighbors who call the sidewalks of Skid Row home. Bottled water, blankets, packaged food, T-shirts, etc. You collect it, we will deliver it. We have 20+ years delivering directly to our Neighbors of Skid Row.
